  • the present invention concerns the management of meetings and more particularly, the management of meetings through group calling on mobile communications devices.
  • Description of the Related Art Human interaction remains a large part of the way that many companies do business. In particular, the employees of most companies typically meet in conference rooms to discuss various projects and other business-related material. As employees are saddled with more and more tasks, a greater number of meetings are being called. Because of work strains and the number of meetings involved, many employees are late arriving to such events, and valuable time is wasted waiting for the decision makers to show up. As such, it is desirable to have a system and method in place to enable employees to better manage all these business events that require their presence.
  • the present invention concerns a method for managing meetings using group calling.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé (200) et un système (100) pour gérer des réunions à l'aide d'appels de groupe. Le procédé peut comprendre les étapes consistant à détecter (212) un ou plusieurs participants de réunion pour une réunion, à comparer (214) les participants de réunion détectés avec un listage des participants de réunion prévus et à générer (216) une liste d'appels de groupe dynamique qui comprend au moins les participants de réunion prévus qui n'ont pas été détectés. En guise d'exemple, la liste d'appels de groupe dynamique peut être générée sur un dispositif de communication mobile (122) de l'un des participants de réunion détectés. Le procédé peut également comprendre l'étape de mise en rapport simultanément (218) depuis le dispositif de communication mobile avec des participants de réunion prévus sur la liste d'appels de groupe dynamique qui n'ont pas été détectés.
